Are people getting sick twice? I know its happened where people have tested positive twice. But are there any significant numbers that are recovering and then somehow catch it again?
No idea. Most of these folks are quarantined and not getting tests unless they show symptoms. Some have been told that. Others told to get tested. The county health department has given different orders for different people, too.
So scientists are finding that the biggest culprit right now, in terms of spreading covid, are large family gatherings.
Birx warns about a 'very different' coronavirus spread
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — Dr. Deborah Birx of the White House coronavirus task force said Thursday she's concerned about the uptick in COVID-19 cases in the Northeast, noting how more people are becoming infected because of indoor family gatherings and social events.apnews.com
This is a bit scary, given that Thanksgiving is coming up.
Listen, forget national news for a second... all of you on here, just please be careful, especially if you have loved ones who are at increased risk. If you look at what Chris Christie had to say about being completely alone and isolated in an ICU bed worrying about dying... my dad was in the infectious disease ward the week before he died, and even though we could see him, it was absolutely scary, that every doctor and nurse was all buttoned up coming in.
So guys, just be careful with your loved ones. Thanksgiving and the holidays are awesome, but just be careful, and if you can make changes this one year, it might be worth it.
I really don't want anyone on this forum posting about a loved one suffering or dying when it could have been avoided.

My doctor told me to get the flu shot because he said getting both Covid and flu would be a bad deal. Idk.
One thing for sure is...I wish I sold flu shots.
My sister was diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer last month and she and my brother in law have been staying with me and my parents while she’s going through chemo because my brother in law works nights, so I’ve got to be even more cautious than I was before if/when I go somewhere so that I don’t catch Covid-19 or even something as simple as a cold and bring it home and spread it to her.So scientists are finding that the biggest culprit right now, in terms of spreading covid, are large family gatherings.

I am sorry to hear this, man. I hope your sister fights through this and her and your family stays strong. Best wishes.
Update. 11 family members have it. Including me. Three are over 60, one over 55. Five children under 10 yo. No doctor visits. Just testing. Wife goes back to work tomorrow. She works daycare. I tested late, so I can't report back to work until nov., 5th. Been mild. Only cold symptoms , and no taste or smell, cough. Taste has been the worst symptom. Although whiskey goes down much smoother
Can you give us a thumbs up or down to let us know you're ok?
Cooper is an idiot. He ordered a 10pm to 5am curfew that begins Friday where most businesses will have to close at 10pm except for bars because they’ll have to close at 9pm.
It’s ridiculous that Cooper keeps imposing the most strict rules on bars. They already can only serve outside at 30% capacity until 11 and now he’s making them close at 9 under the same 30% outside capacity.
